Are all these guys ineligible again?

If he didn't shoot from his right ear, I'd consider it. 

@Gerry Hamilton I can say this for Lakers fans thinking about the post-Kobe era with LeBrick and Fat Boy Luka. 

 

Hey @Gerry Hamilton. Kobe Bryant is widely considered the best point-of-attack and perimeter defender in NBA history, earning 9 NBA All-Defensive First Team selections and 3 Second Team selections (12 total) for his elite defense. He locked down players as diverse as Allen Iverson and Jason Kidd to Tracy McCrady and LeBron James.

OV Sept 12. 

Duke, Texas, Arkansas, UNC, USC top 5. 

Black likes Texas for sure, but we shall see if it actually makes sense for him and circle. 

Sean Miller interview with Jon Rothstein published this morning ...

 

Gerry it feels like a lot of the HS recruiting now is much more focused on NIL & early PT. I know you’ve outlined some of the OVers this fall but given this team has a lot of potential for returning guys after the season do you think there’s a specific position or type of guy they’re looking to get locked in from HS or is it still very fluid?

The new SEC ruling doesn't say it applies to Euroleague guys from my understanding.

What will the SEC say on that

That gets back to the argument about the NCAA telling the seniors they would not get the fifth year. What is a player supposed to do? He's going to look into the pros, not sit back and think, hey, maybe the NCAA might change its mind.

It's also murky because players used to not get paid, and now they do. What is a pro? In college, it's certainly not a player getting a rev share, right? But *now* the SEC/B1G would crack down on players who got paid by NBA teams in the summer, or expenses?  

I don't think the details have been worked out on this at all. 

So uhhhh what’s lsu and Will Wade gonna do since almost everyone outside of like 1 or 2 players on the roster are illegal and ineligible per SEC rules? 😂😂😂🤣🤣

Check with Bob W------h on how to run tryouts.

Texas did find a 7 foot tall band member back then. 

Sounds like Big 12 is saying no Euroleaguers. 
 

This would hurt Arizona and Tech a lot.

Kiffin’s new argument is the courts did allow it. Even though they have stayed the ruling you can’t tell the guys they can come and then tell them no.

Tennessee loses Jalen Washington with the NCAA being granted a stay in the state of Tennessee ruling today.

UH loses Chendall Weaver

OU also loses G BJ Edwards

It's quite amusing to watch various fan bases come up with reasons why the contract their guy signed or the roster list he appeared on aren't really contracts or real roster lists.

Doesn’t seem like Mark Mitchell will end up being eligible at Kentucky
